簡介目錄

概述

2023 年，全球垃圾發電市場規模達到 385 億美元，預計到 2031 年將達到 687 億美元，2024-2031 年預測期間CAGR為 7.5%。

廢物轉化能源在幫助公共當局建立循環廢物管理系統方面發揮著至關重要的作用，同時確保可靠、本地、負擔得起和部分可再生的能源。垃圾發電廠可有效處理不可回收的垃圾，將其作為寶貴的資源，為歐洲 1,700 萬人提供熱量，為 2,000 萬居民提供電力。在歐洲，供應給區域供熱和製冷網路的熱量中大約有 10% 來自廢物轉化為能源。

美國能源部生物能源技術辦公室和國家再生能源實驗室已採取措施支持和改善全球垃圾發電計畫。 BETO 和 NREL 之間的合作啟動了有機廢物轉化能源技術援助計劃。

到 2023 年，北美預計將成為成長第二快的地區，約佔全球垃圾發電市場的 25%。在美國，商業廢棄物占城市固體廢棄物的很大一部分，使其成為廢棄物管理工作的關鍵焦點。企業須遵守聯邦、州和地方有關廢棄物管理的法規，不遵守規定可能會導致巨額罰款和聲譽受損。為了滿足這些要求並避免此類後果，企業擴大轉向 WTE 轉換技術。

動力學

日益關注永續廢棄物管理和發電

垃圾發電需求的增加是由多種因素推動的，其中最重要的一個因素是垃圾發電廠透過將城市固體廢物燃燒作為燃料發電，為管理城市固體廢物提供了解決方案。它解決了廢棄物處理的挑戰，並將廢棄物量減少了約 87%。都市固體廢棄物含有豐富的能源材料，如紙張、塑膠、庭院垃圾和木製品，可以有效地用作燃料來源。美國大約 85% 的都市固體廢棄物可以燃燒發電。

有不同的燃燒技術，包括大規模燃燒設施、模組化系統和垃圾衍生燃料系統。大規模燃燒設施是美國最常見的類型，在傾斜的移動爐排上燃燒城市固體廢棄物。模組化系統更小、更攜帶，而垃圾衍生燃料系統則將城市固體廢棄物粉碎並分離，產生可燃混合物。

政府獎勵和補貼

政府的激勵和補貼正在推動各個地區垃圾發電市場的成長。中國設定了2031年50%的垃圾處理量通過垃圾發電的目標，並慷慨補貼計畫。在高額傾倒費和上網電價補貼的支持下，英國垃圾發電計畫迅速成長。荷蘭、丹麥、日本和新加坡等土地有限的國家，由於垃圾掩埋稅，焚化率較高。

垃圾發電項目建設成本高昂，預計到 2050 年裝置容量將大幅增加。目前焚燒是大規模垃圾管理最有利的選擇，但報告承認，消費者偏好、垃圾成分和環境政策的變化可能會影響該行業。

垃圾發電管理對環境的影響

經過廢棄物焚燒發電的廢棄物中存在的大部分碳以二氧化碳的形式釋放到大氣中，二氧化碳是一種普遍存在的溫室氣體，對氣候變遷有重大影響。對於由紙張、紙板、棉花、木材和食物垃圾等生質能來源製成的廢棄燃料，燃燒過程中排放的二氧化碳來自最初從大氣中吸收的碳。

塑膠、石油產品和其他在廢物轉化能源過程中焚燒的物質也會以與任何其他化石燃料類似的方式導致溫室氣體排放。這些材料的燃燒會導致有害溫室氣體的釋放，對環境產生不利影響。

Waste to energy plays a vital role in helping public authorities by establishing a circular waste management system while ensuring reliable, local, affordable and partially renewable energy. Waste to energy plants effectively process non-recyclable waste, utilizing it as a valuable resource to generate heat for 17 million individuals and electricity for 20 million citizens across Europe. Approximately 10% of the heat supplied to district heating and cooling networks in Europe is derived from waste to energy.

U.S. Department of Energy's Bioenergy Technologies Office and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory have taken steps to support and improve waste-to-energy initiatives globally. The collaboration between BETO and NREL has resulted in the launch of the organic Waste-to-Energy Technical Assistance program.

In 2023, North America is expected to be the second-fastest growing region, holding about 25% of the global waste to energy market. In U.S., commercial waste comprises a significant portion of municipal solid waste, making it a crucial focus for waste management efforts. Businesses are subject to federal, state and local regulations regarding waste management and non-compliance can result in substantial fines and reputational damage. To meet these requirements and avoid such consequences, businesses are increasingly turning to WTE conversion technologies.

Dynamics

Rising Focus on Sustainable Waste Management and Electricity Generation

The increased demand for waste-to-energy is driven by several factors, one of the most important is that waste-to-energy plants provide a solution for managing municipal solid waste by burning it as fuel to generate electricity. It addresses the challenge of waste disposal and reduces the volume of waste by about 87%. MSW contains energy-rich materials like paper, plastics, yard waste and wood products, which can be efficiently utilized as a fuel source. Approximately 85% of MSW in U.S. can be burned to generate electricity.

Different combustion technologies exist, including mass burn facilities, modular systems and refuse-derived fuel systems. Mass burn facilities are the most common type in U.S. and burn MSW on a sloping, moving grate. Modular systems are smaller and portable, while refuse-derived fuel systems shred and separate MSW to produce a combustible mixture.

Government Incentives and Subsidies

Government incentives and subsidies are driving growth in the waste to energy market in various regions. China has set a target for 50% of its waste disposal to be handled through waste to energy by 2031 and is generously subsidizing projects. UK has seen rapid growth in waste to energy projects supported by high tipping fees and feed-in tariffs. Countries with land constraints, such as Netherlands, Denmark, Japan and Singapore, have higher rates of incineration due to landfill taxation.

Waste to energy projects are costly to set up and the installed capacity is expected to increase significantly by 2050. Incineration is currently the most favorable option for large-scale waste management, but the report acknowledges that changes in consumer preferences, waste composition and environmental policies could impact the industry.

Environmental Impact of Waste-to-Energy Management

The majority of the carbon present in the waste that undergoes waste-to-energy incineration is released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide which is a prevalent greenhouse gas with significant implications for climate change. In the case of waste fuel made from biomass sources such as paper, paperboard, cotton, wood and food waste, the carbon dioxide emitted during combustion originates from the carbon that was initially absorbed from the atmosphere.

Materials like plastics, oil-based products and other substances that are also incinerated in waste-to-energy processes contribute to greenhouse gas emissions in a manner similar to any other fossil fuel. The combustion of these materials results in the release of harmful greenhouse gases that have detrimental effects on the environment.

Segment Analysis

The global waste to energy market is segmented based on technology, waste and region.

Rising Demand for Thermal Incineration Drives the Segment Growth

Driver assistance is expected to be the fastest growing segment with 1/3rd of the market during the forecast period 2024-2031. It is estimated that plants that combine thermal power cogeneration and electricity generation can achieve 80% efficiency. Based on the International Renewable Energy Agency, globally bioenergy capacity will reach 148.9 GW in 2022, up 5.3% from the previous year.

Incineration is now the most widely used waste-to-energy technique for processing municipal solid waste. However, waste-to-energy systems, notably incineration, emit pollutants and pose serious health hazards. To minimize particulate and gas-phase emissions, incineration facilities have deployed a variety of process units for cleaning the flue gas stream, resulting in a considerable improvement in environmental sustainability.

Geographical Penetration

Rising Focus on Renewable Energy in Asia-Pacific

Asia-Pacific is the dominant region in the global waste to energy market covering about 30% of the market. The region is witnessing a growing interest in waste-to-energy management, driven by the benefits of waste to energy extend beyond energy generation. By reducing the volume of waste going to landfills by up to 90%, waste to energy helps address landfill capacity issues and mitigates methane emissions from decomposing organic materials. The factors are particularly crucial in Southeast Asia, where urban populations are projected to rise significantly, placing greater demands on waste management systems.

Southeast Asian countries including Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam have initiated WtE projects or trials. China and Japan are major players in exporting their expertise and technology to the region.

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on waste-to-energy infrastructure, revealing both challenges and opportunities. One of the significant challenges was the increased volume of healthcare waste, overwhelming existing waste management systems. The limited resources and technology options, along with the capacity constraints of central waste management facilities, posed difficulties in effectively managing the surge in infectious medical waste.

The pandemic also underscored the need to shift towards a circular economy approach in waste management. The increased demand for single-use plastics during the pandemic led to a surge in plastic waste, creating an ecological disaster. To address this, a shift towards sustainable production, consumption and product design is necessary. The circular economy promotes resource efficiency, zero waste goals and alternative treatment technologies, such as recycling.

Russia-Ukraine War Impact

The Russia-Ukraine war has significantly affected waste-to-energy management, particularly by causing a surge in energy prices. It leads to higher household energy costs, creating an energy crisis that directly impacts heating, cooling, lighting and mobility expenses. Also, the increased energy prices have indirectly raised the costs of other goods and services throughout global supply chains.

A study conducted on 116 countries, with a focus on developing nations, revealed that household energy costs have risen by at least 63% and potentially up to 113%. The represents a major economic shock, requiring households globally to find additional income to maintain their pre-war living standards.

AI Impact

AI is powering waste-to-energy management through the integration of AI algorithms in robotic waste-to-energy systems. The systems leverage AI to optimize waste sorting, enhance energy conversion efficiency and improve overall waste management practices.

One of the key contributions of AI is in waste sorting. Machine learning algorithms can be trained to identify and separate different types of waste based on their physical properties and spectral signatures. It enables robots to sort waste more accurately and efficiently, increasing the recovery of valuable materials and reducing the amount of waste that ends up in landfills.
